Question: 1 / 400

What does the term 'muzzle' refer to on a firearm?

The front sight

The storage compartment

The end of the barrel from which the bullet exits

The term 'muzzle' refers to the end of the barrel from which the bullet exits. This is often associated with the firing mechanism of a firearm. Option A, the front sight, is used to aim the firearm and is not the same as the muzzle. Option B, the storage compartment, is not typically found on a firearm and would not be considered the muzzle. Option D, the part that holds the ammunition, is known as the magazine or cylinder, but is also not the same as the muzzle. Therefore, only option C accurately describes the term 'muzzle' in relation to firearms.
